Disney Launches Search For NFT Manager
Disney is launching a search for a non-fungible token (NFT) expert to help lead the entertainment giant's efforts in the space. The manager will be responsible for "monitoring the evolving marketplace, setting category strategy, and managing key partners," per the job posting.
The manager's duties will include identifying growth opportunities by category, franchise, and distribution, implementing new deals to fill the gaps, and tracking and analyzing category trends and market data to maximize business in each segment.
Candidates must have a minimum of five years of licensing or business development experience, knowledge and passion for the digital and NFT categories, and strong proficiency with Microsoft Office applications such as Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Keynote.
An NFT is a unique digital token that can turn any item in the digital world, from tweets to Gifs to videos, into a collectible asset. Like cryptocurrencies, NFTs are sold and bought via the blockchain. Non-fungible tokens verify authenticity and ownership by encrypting the creator's signature on the blockchain.
In December, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office approved Disney's application for a "virtual world simulator" that would track individual theme park visitors through their smartphones or other devices to personalize 3D projections. People would not have to wear special goggles or headsets to see the images.
While the company told the LA Times it has no current plans to use the technology in the immediate future, Disney CEO Bob Chapek told analysts on the company's fourth-quarter earnings call that it is laying the groundwork to connect the physical and digital worlds to allow for "storytelling without boundaries in our own Disney metaverse."
Ethereum Price Is Expected To Reach These Levels
The Ethereum price chart shows us that ETH has dropped considerably over the past couple of sessions, thanks to the 20-day SMA acting as strong resistance. If the price continues to drop, we could see ETH fall to $2600.
